Bernt 118180e7ff docs: PR-001 Domain Model v1.2 — Three Rules + Experience Intelligence + Capability Tags
- Added Three Rules to README:
  1. Domain knows nothing about AI (no AIObservation, YOLODetection, etc.)
  2. Everything is an Artifact (common contract for all produced objects)
  3. All decisions are reproducible (answer: which observations, evidence,
     model, version, rules, reviewer, when, approved version)

- Renamed Human Intelligence → Experience Intelligence
  - Broader scope: citizen surveys, customer satisfaction, field technician
    feedback, contractor experience, service desk data
  - More future-proof than 'Human Intelligence'

- Added Capability Tags for developers:
  - Observation: [Detection, Vision, GPS, Image]
  - Decision: [Decision, Recommendation, Business]
  - Artifact: [Storage, Versioning, Lineage]
  - Makes dependencies clear as platform grows

- Updated Domain Invariants:
  - DecisionCase: must have at least one Review before Approved
  - Review: must belong to exactly one Decision, must have reviewer

- Added Merge Criteria:
  - All stakeholders (developer, AI engineer, product owner, domain expert)
    can read model and understand same terms
  - No AI objects, all Artifacts, reproducible decisions

Rationale: Lock domain language before implementation. Shared vocabulary
for code, docs, APIs, tests, and product discussions.

PR-001: Domain Model

Package: @landvex/domain

PR 001
Scope Domain language only — no database, no HTTP, no buckets, no AI
Rule This package has zero dependencies on Express, PostgreSQL, S3, or AI frameworks

README

This package describes the LandveX domain model. It contains no dependencies to database, HTTP, cloud storage, or AI frameworks. It defines only the language, objects, and rules that the rest of the platform builds upon.

Three Rules

Rule 1: Domain knows nothing about AI

No AI-specific objects in domain:

  • AIObservation
  • YOLODetection
  • GeminiResult
  • ClaudeAnalysis

Domain only knows:

  • Observation
  • Evidence
  • Finding
  • Decision
  • Review
  • Outcome

If we switch from YOLO to a custom model in five years, the domain does not change.

Rule 2: Everything is an Artifact

Artifact is a common contract for everything produced:

Artifact
├── Image
├── Video
├── Dataset
├── Annotation
├── Model
├── Evaluation
├── DecisionCase
├── Report
└── ExperienceInsight

All artifacts share:

  • id
  • version
  • hash
  • lineage
  • createdAt
  • createdBy
  • storageUri

This makes the entire platform consistent.

Rule 3: All decisions are reproducible

Every Decision Case must answer:

  • Which observations were used?
  • Which evidence was used?
  • Which model?
  • Which model version?
  • Which rules?
  • Who reviewed?
  • When?
  • Which version was approved?

If any question cannot be answered, the Decision Case is incomplete.

Strict Rule

No new feature may introduce new domain concepts without an approved change to the domain model.

The concepts Session, Mission, Artifact, Observation, Evidence, Finding, Decision, Review, and Outcome become the shared language for the entire organization — code, documentation, APIs, tests, and product discussions use the same terms.


Not in PR-001

Item Why Excluded
Repositories Domain should not know about persistence
Services Will come in next PR
Database code Infrastructure concern
HTTP endpoints API concern
Bucket code Infrastructure concern
AI logic Separate concern
Human Intelligence Separate module, not core domain

Future Module: Experience Intelligence (Not in Epic-001)

Positioning: External Intelligence Module, not part of core domain.

Why separate: Stakeholder feedback is not an observation from reality like a road crack. It is context that can influence priorities and decisions.

Architecture:

Reality Intelligence
│
├── Infrastructure Intelligence  ← Core (Epic-001)
│   Roads, Buildings, Parks, Signs
│
├── Operational Intelligence     ← Future
│   SLA, Tickets, Costs, Times
│
├── Experience Intelligence      ← Future module
│   Citizen surveys
│   Customer satisfaction
│   Field technician feedback
│   Contractor experience
│   Service desk data
│   NPS, Complaints, Feedback
│
└── External Intelligence        ← Future
│   Weather, Traffic, Demographics

Experience Insight Artifact:

Experience Insight
├── Source: "Kommunenkät 2026"
├── Geography: [Stockholm, Nacka]
├── Period: "Q2 2026"
├── Stakeholders: [Citizens, Field Technicians, Contractors]
├── Metrics:
│   ├── CSAT: 4.2
│   ├── NPS: 62
│   └── Complaint Index: 0.34
└── Confidence: 0.83

Usage: Linked to Area or Decision Case, but never mixed with raw field observations.

Decision Case with Experience Intelligence:

Observation: "Crack on main street"
Evidence: [Image, Video, History, GIS]
Experience Intelligence: "Many complaints last 30 days, low satisfaction index"
Decision: "Prioritize repair within 14 days"
Business Impact: "Reduced risk, lower future cost, improved citizen satisfaction"

When: After Epic-001 is stable and 20+ Decision Cases exist.
